I've got a bunch of old 914 parts taking up space in the garage/attic/bar room/office etc....like all the rest of you do. For those that actually sell this stuff, do you find more success on here, on 914club, or eBay? (or somewhere else?) just a lot of misc stuff I want to get rid of from multiple car builds/tear downs.

Thoughts?

e bay is a bunch of hassle to list and one deals with bottom feeders (meaning you list the parts at a rock bottom price and they still complain that the price is too high) but it is by far the best place to list the parts. You have to be able to ship around the world though as the european buyers pay more.
Of course e bay and pay pal get their fees so you will lose about 10% of the sale price by the time everything is said and done. THEN some parts will never sell especially the ones that are too costly to ship. NOS parts sell well and the typical parts that everyone wants (for example PERFECT speaker grilles visors chrome driving light grilles and bumper guards) will bring some good money.
